About LYNKEUS IMPACT TURRET
To maximise the operational flexibility of MBDA's in-service fifth generation AKERON MP land combat weapon and to provide a range of land and naval platforms with an advanced battle capability, MBDA has developed the LYNKEUS IMPACT TURRET.
The 250kg class remote controlled turret provides an optimised battle capability against a wide spectrum of hard and soft targets for a range of manned light combat vehicles including UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles) and naval platforms including USVs (unmanned surface vessels).
LYNKEUS IMPACT TURRET features a twin launcher on the land variant deploying two ready-to-fire AKERON MP missiles and a 7.62mm general-purpose machine gun. For naval craft the LYNKEUS IMPACT TURRET launcher also deploys two missiles (there is no machine gun). The firing post operation is commanded remotely either from inside the vehicle cab or at a distance from a laptop console (as would be the case with UGVs and USVs) for maximum operator safety. Following consultation, integration of the turret and its associated systems on the customer's chosen platform is carried out and made ready for full operational use by MBDA engineers.
